Al Qa'ida militants killed two Saudi men accused of spying for the United States in Yemen, a day after the group announced its leader was killed in a suspected US drone strike.

Residents said that al Qa'ida accused the men of planting tracking chips enabling US drones to target and kill leaders in the group, after its leader Nasser al-Wuhayshi, along with two other militants were assassinated on Tuesday.
